Jose Antonio used to be an electrician in Spain, but after suffering with depression he lost everything he had and ended up on the street.

He made just enough money to eat through working as an unlicensed parking attendant in Majorca.

Salva Garcia, the owner of a hair salon that was open opposite where Jose worked, invited him in one day for a makeover.

HEARTBREAKING: Jose used to be an electrician but lost everything after suffering depression

And no one expected how incredible the result would be.

Described as going from homeless to hipster, Jose’s new do has made him an internet superstar.

Before the cut and colour he says to the cameraman: “Leave the doors over the mirror open for the moment so I can see myself for the last time like this.

“Then close them to see if when they open again, it's as if something else really opened up in my life, like a symbol.”

When he saw his new face for the first time he couldn't hold back the tears.

TRANSFORMATION: The man can't believe his new look

Who has the SILLIEST hair: Geert Wilders or Donald Trump?

The American President and the Dutch far right populist have much in common, but their hair is almost at opposite ends of the spectrum. One sports a thin tissue, carefully constructed from cobwebs, hairspray and broken dreams, the other a fearsome hair-helmet in the style made popular by Bond villains and 70s Scandinavian folk singers. Which is worse?

The horror, the horrorÉ

“This is incredible, is this me?” the man asks.

“I’m so different, no-one's going to recognise me unless I tell them who I am.”

The salon sorted Jose out with some new clothes too so he really looked the part.

According to reports, the handsome bloke is now off the streets thanks to a company who gave him some financial help.
